Mr Cutajar said an off duty paramedic was one of the first responders.

"There was an off duty paramedic who arrived on scene within minutes of this incident occurring and he was able to provide significant information to the responding crews that was helpful. She [the deceased woman] was conscious and alert at that time but very quickly thereafter went into an unconscious status," he said.

Queensland Ambulance said the 31-year-old female southbound driver sustained chest and arm injuries while the 32-year-old male driver had wrist, neck and back injuries.

No charges have been laid and police said they were yet to interview the male driver.

"One of the offending drivers, the vehicle was on the incorrect side of the road. This is a timely reminder for everyone to be safe on the roads and we're appealing for any witnesses to come forward in relation to this incident," Acting Senior Sergeant Graham Roberson said.
